The :disabled_admin Merge Tag Modifier
There are certain situations where you'll want to disable a View filter when the currently logged-in user is an Administrator.
One of these situations is when you need your View to list entries assigned to a specific user, but you also want to display all entries if the user is an Administrator.
In that, we'll add the :disabled_admin modifier to the {user:ID} Merge Tag:
{user:ID:disabled_admin}
Example:
With the filters above, the View will:
- Display entries created by the currently logged-in user (created_by meta field);
- Display all entries if the currently logged-in user is an Administrator;
- Display entries where the user ID of the currently logged-in user matches the ID stored in a form field (the field "Assigned To" in the example above).
